ABOUT RONIT

Iโm a writer, podcaster, teacher, and storyteller. Some of my work has been published in The Atlantic,ย The New York Times, The Washington Post, Hippocampus,ย Writer’s Digest, The HuffPost,ย and The Rumpus, but for a complete list of links please visit my Published Works page.
My passion is learning how someone else has lived or survived or has come to understand more about themselves. I love the way storiesโwhether fiction, memoir ย or interviewsโbridge vastly different lived experiences and help connect those who might not otherwise have found each other. Hearing someone tell you their truth and being able to share your own is what helps us feel seen and supported; it’s what keeps us together.
